The ninth round of the Israeli Premier League kicked off at Teddy Stadium with a match between Beitar Jerusalem and Hapoel Kiryat Shmona, drawing an impressive 25,505 spectators. This attendance figure highlights a significant turnout, seemingly addressing a long-standing debate among the "yellow-black" fans regarding the scheduling of matches on Saturdays, particularly in the afternoon.

The large attendance suggests that, at least for this game, the fans' actions supported the decision to play on Saturday.
